I mean you think about it and nobody likes her, while that may be her fault, she still wants someone to like her.

I think she dresses the way she does so men notice her, but shes not really doing it to be sexual. Then i also think that when she talks to Lennie she isnt trying to seduce him but she really is just trying to find comfort in a man and have Lennie to just talk to and listen to her.Conor Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13272386432868066738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7347117263762377354.post-5886643723863767192008-09-16T09:27:00.000-07:002008-09-16T09:27:00.000-07:00I think that Curley's wife had lennie touch her ha...I think that Curley's wife had lennie touch her hair because obviously we all agree that she wants attention and maybe she doesn't get the attention that she needs from Curley so she was trying to get attention from Lennie just because she craves men attention.KaleighDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02241595546400985108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7347117263762377354.post-5745965926773361942008-09-16T09:26:00.007-07:002008-09-16T09:26:00.007-07:00I think she was just honestly telling Lennie to fe...I think she was just honestly telling Lennie to feel her hair because they have something in common. nothing more that a conversation about... hair?jamieGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13077710814376483559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7347117263762377354.post-32808296957355613382008-09-16T09:26:00.006-07:002008-09-16T09:26:00.006-07:00Curley's wife did have it coming to her.

Saying something like, "OMG, my life is horrible. Please feel sorry for me." Especially in this chapter, I did not feel sorry for her, even if she was being nice to Lennie.RachelKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09217814187301104118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7347117263762377354.post-62122779548046499162008-09-16T09:26:00.005-07:002008-09-16T09:26:00.005-07:00I agree with Cassie that she isn't as innocent as...I agree with Cassie that she isn't as innocent as she seems and since Lennie wouldn't really judge her that means that she can say things and get away with saying things she can't talk about with most guys because of curly, it also was expected to happen to her, she tries to make him feel to comfortable with talking to her, and really wanted to get his attention.michellevhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04869908961850211482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7347117263762377354.post-84242823133417282612008-09-16T09:26:00.004-07:002008-09-16T09:26:00.004-07:00I don't think she was trying to seduce Lennie beca...I don't think she was trying to seduce Lennie because I think she was just trying to talk to someone because Curley never let her talk to anybody.
